This video explains the working mechanisms involved in a motorcycle transmission through relevant animations. Motorcycle gearbox is a series of gear steps that help to change torque and rpm of a wheel depending on the different conditions. It is a constant mesh sequential transmission system. In Constant Mesh Transmission system, all gears remains constantly meshed with each corresponding gear mates at all times.

Not just that, Constant mesh transmissions in motorcycles use synchromesh most of the time these days (even though they still use the gear-neutral-gear selector drum). Which is a type of constant mesh gearbox developed by GM with a whole team of engineers. So far from the 'inventor-entrepreneur' capitalist ideal Eat Shit's idolizing to boot. They still make more then he does though, most likely.

This false neutrals occur when shifting improper way. Wrong rev match. Not pushing the gearbox leaver before the actual shift. and or Not pushing it long enough. Animation in this video is very good. If you watch it closely and with understanding, then you can learn how to eliminate false neutrals, have *huge* satisfaction from riding properly and keep your gearbox from breaking completely.

I was a mechanic many years ago. Did play with an occasional gearbox in changing sync cones and swapping out a gear or two. Easy enough but how someone designed then made these was beyond comprehension. Pulling a motor was fun & simple enough as we did quite a few of them, loved pulling apart the V8s then putting them back together along with many diesel engines. Differentials were in the gearbox category but to then explain how to pull apart and rebuild an auto transmission was another level. If doing it everyday, then it may have become clearer. Thanks for your video.

It is extremely important to keep every washer gear and clip in the same position as it was. Make sure everything is facing the same direction too. If you miss a single washer it can cause major functionality flaws. If you can find a service manual diagram it’s a big help.
@oc2phish07
@oc2phish07 4 роки тому
If by 'slipping' you mean it jumps out of gear at times, especially under hard acceleration, then the chances are you have a slightly bent selector fork. This can be caused by riding with your foot on, or under the gear lever and applying a very slight pressure while you are riding, even if you don't realise you are doing it. It causes the fork to rub excessively hard on the groove in the sliding dog and that causes heat and wear and the fork bends a little. Just being slightly bent can mean the engagement dog clutch teeth don't fully connect with the holes in the adjacent gear and under hard acceleration they jump apart. Usual cure unfortunately is a new selector fork, sliding gear and the gear next to the dog clutch. And gaskets and oil of course.

There are some very handy mathematical formulae that can be used. And a few assistive tools that existed before the advent of CAD/CAM software. The short answer is: It takes a long damn time to engineer something like this. And almost as long for the 'Syncromesh' system that's supplanted this (it works in the same way, except the gears in red don't actually slide either. They are locked/disengaged with a separate device called a synchronizer that the forks move, it shifts way smoother and wears much less) despite those being designed on a computer.

Yep. Ya gotta COMMIT when shifting gears. My old ZX11 had a neutrals all over. My new BMWs have none apparent.

and what is not said, is very well understandable, as the fork moving the gears through the drum, and how the wholem mechanism is able to rotate at any time....BRAVISSIMO !

I've been trying to get the concept of neutral in a a car transmission but no animation specifically explains it, this finally made everything dock. Well made.

Isn't this a miracle? And also, despite riding the bikes for last 20 years I just couldn't understand how a gearbox works. Now I am a bit smarter, thank you for this animation!

What about false neutral and that grinding sound after engaging gear i want that in animation that would be fun to watch 😈
@Uninfluenceable
@Uninfluenceable 4 роки тому
see 4:40 when the roller gets stuck on the peak of the shift drum star is when you get a false neutral, the grinding comes from you giving it gas, thinking that it's in gear, and once it does go into gear (meaning go off the peak of the star), the dog gear and freewheeling gear are spinning at very different speed and thus the crunch you hear as the side teeth on the dog gear collides with the holes in the freewheeling gear. A false neutral every now and then is OK, but once it becomes too frequent, the side teeth on the dog gears round off and the bike will keep popping out of gear under acceleration. This has happened to me on several bikes, and on most older bikes it costs more to repair than the bike is worth because it's around 25-30 hours of labor to replace the damaged gears.

@@adrianhadipermana6109 The teeth pop out of their position. The roller doesnt stop op the tip od the star* just the gears dont make contact. You see when these teeth are worn down a bit, they tend to slide off the gear and remain in the false neutral between the gears. Hope yoy know what i mean XD

@@adrianhadipermana6109 just now i saw that the first reply to this comment explains it a bit better hold your 2 fingers together and pull them apart. They one must straighten up to release the grip. Its similar with the gears just in this case the teeth of one gear are rounded up, that couses the gears to dont lock with each other or do it less often.

4:10 in real life we only find neutral in between 1st and second gears....that is unless you ride an old kawasaki 2 stroke. then you can find a neutral anywhere and at to most inopportune times. 😂😂
